At the end of the night
By the light of the day
Let's raise our glass to the sky!
A bottle a day keeps the doctor away
Let's raise our glass
Drink your problems away

Come on my friend, leave everything outside

A night in Dublin, a night in Cork
We're on the way to Connemara
We are leaving for New York
A day in coaches, a day in trains
We go by bus and car, we go by boat and plane
We're traveling men of honor and always on the road
We hire vans and coaches to carry our load
We fancy going on a trip, it's far out in the sticks

You’re eyes were not blind, still you could not see
a danger that you could not stop and not feel.

All these questions about heaven knows why lost their meaning
somehow but I still wanna know how you felt
when you stood all alone at the edge of you life
and you’ve made your own choice between darkness and light
and prepared youself for the end, your step right out of your life.

And who are you me pretty fair maid
And who are you me honey
She answered to me quite modestly:
I am me mother's darling
With me tooryay, fol de diddle day
Dire fol de diddle dairie oh

And will you come to me mother's house

Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And the days of auld lang syne?

chorus
For auld lang syne, my dear
For auld lang syne

I walked five miles, then I took a car

It soon broke down, so I didn't get far

I stole a bike, but it was in vain

Both wheels bent, so I took a train

Bad days, trouble all around us
Mad boss, nothing but a dumb ass
Good vibes, this is what we go for
Count the days till we come around and get more

Hooray, leave it all behind now
We don't want to be a cash cow
So what? Here's your destination

Darling, darling it's a delight
In your eyes a shimmering light
Taking all that's warm and bright
Love oh love so tender and right

Darling, darling it's a delight
Your beautiful smile the fire ignits
Sparks and flames rise in the night

It's just another day I can't breath
It's playing in my mind when I sleep
The pictures in my head the won't leave
The faces look so strange, they're staring with cold eyes
They wanna

Change me, and change the things I see
Change me, and change the way I

Hey, what's wrong? What's going on?

It's way over my head!

Did I really do that? Yes, you did!

I'd better stay in bed!

Connemara, Connemara on my mind
Connemara, where even the rain shines
Connemara, leaving all my troubles behind
Connemara on my mind

Speaker: "While I'm sitting here
The waves of the sea are lapping
Against the wild shores of Connemara

A country of plenty, a country of bloom
Together we rise with a glance in our eyes
We search for a place you won't find in this life
We won't give up seeking, we live in a fool's paradise!

Been travelling for years on the streets of this world
We stopped at strange places, we've seen lots of faces
We paced back and forth like some bustlers at night

Get me out out of everyday's prison
I don't want to be working and
Working until I die there ain't no doubt
That I'm a renegade dropout
I'm a wandering busker and play all
My songs in town

Pretty baby

The first place that I saw my love
It was at a ball
I looked at her, I gazed at her
Far above them all but aye she looked on me
With scorn and disdain
And the bonny wee lassie's answer
Was to no come again was to no come again
And the bonny wee lassie's answer

Move move along but don’t you get me wrong caus
I’m just a muggle man
You’re free as a bird but don’t forget my word
Don’t stand so close to me

You are the living sindex and you’re number one
I’m trying hard to get away so don’t you get me wrong

Way, hey and away we go
donkey riding, donkey riding
Way, hey and away we go
riding on a donkey

Was you ever in Quebec
Launching timber on the deck
Where ya break your bleeding neck

Buenos dìas, vaya con dios
I am here, I am there I am everywhere
And I wish you a lovely morning
I'm gonna drag you all to hell
Hasta la vista, mi senorita
Adios, adios, adios, os, os
My crazy little lass in Puerto Rico
You can be sure we'll go down well

Down by the hillside
In a cave by the sea
Lies the heart made of stone
Waiting For Me
For what can awaken an angel
My angel so soon
Whose sleep has been taken
Beneath the cold moon?

The Day was Crap, I hing around and was feeling lonely
Empty Pockets, Empty Fridge, didn't know just what to do
My breath smelled like a Cigarette Butt, unshaved, my
Hair was greasy
Headache from the Night before, couldn't Remember
Anything

Last Night it was Saturday, I sat around, you passed my

Those days
We mooched around counting the girls go by
We wasted the time and let the sun shine
Those days we hung out with friends
And so we dirted our face but
Now we rise up again

These days we've reached the top of the

I dream about you and every word you said
I can't believe it but this
Time I'm not scared
I'm smiling at you - wash it all away
I'm getting stronger - no more yesterday

And it's so hard to believe
I don't want you to deceive me

I met him on the motorway, said he was a free man
And did I have a cigarette
He'd been all over travelling, looking for a little gold
He said with a laugh, I found nothing yet
He had to get out of Ireland
The police there they've got a lot of tricks
They give a dog a bad name -
You better believe that it always sticks

This one goes out to the Greens and fellows
And this one goes out to our friends
While so many leaves fade from green to yellow
You're never alone till the end

This one goes out to the Greens and fellows
Their hearts are beating as one
With so many trees giving peace and shadow

Hang your coat on my hook
Let us read the last book
I'll pretend all your demons are gone

Have no fear, do not cry
This is your lullaby
And the hangman will not know

Where are the legs with which you run?
Where are the legs with which you run?
When first you went to take a gun?
Indeed, your dancing days are gone

Where is the flame that once was burning
Deep inside your soft brown eyes?
Where is the soul that once was yearning

I can almost taste the water and the salt in my mouth
Though I'm sitting in a place so far away
There's a lonely road meandering a valley of green
And it takes me to the place down by the Sea

I close my eyes I spread my soul, I fly with the wind
High above the coast of Dingle Bay
And the waves are dancing to the tune they know oh so

Lift Mac Cahir Og your face
brooding o'er the old disgrace
That black Fitz-William stormed your place
And drove you to the fern
Grey said victory was sure
Soon the firebrand he'd secure
Until he met at Glen Malure Feach
Mac Hugh O'Byrne

(I'll) tell me ma when I go home
The boys won't leave the girls alone
They pulled my hair, they stole my comb
But that's all right till I go home
(chorus):She is handsome, she is pretty
She is the belle of Belfast city
She is courting one, two, three
Please, won't you tell me, who is she?

Summer rain was falling and gave a promise of life
We felt the water on our skin
But then the light grew dim
And in the flickering twilight
We felt the shadow of fear
Cause we both knew that our days were counted
No more time here
She bid take life easy, as the leaves that grow on every tree

Back on my feet again
Out on the streets again
I hear the noise of the crowd
Many a day has passed
Since I found home at last
Losin' my head in the clouds
Indians summer's around
Finally far out of town

If I could look into your mind
I might understand what you're trying to find
You won't do nothing of the kind
And still I don't know who you've been all the time
The mirror, it shows a different face
A matter of time, a matter of place
I know you're gone without a trace
Denying your past and rejecting your ways

A Blacksmith Down From Dingle Bay
He Lived His Live A Special Way
He Lost His Wive And House I'd See
But Still The Best Is Left

A Carpenter From Inishee
Discovered His Ability
To Live From Love And Air, You See

Ye Jacobites By Name, lend an ear, lend an ear
Ye Jacobites By Name, lend an ear
Ye Jacobites By Name, lend an ear, lend an ear
Ye Jacobites By Name, lend an ear

What's right and what is wrong, by the law, by the law
What's right and what is wrong by the law?

In the town of Athy one Jeremy Lanigan
Battered away till he hadn´t a pound
And his father he died and made him a man again,
Left him a farm and ten acres of ground
He gave a grand party to friends and relations
Who did not forget him when come to the wall
If you´d only listen, I´ll make your eyes glisten
At the rows and ructions of Lanigan´s ball

He had a life full of pain
Lived a life full of hope
Stayed in bars drinking jars of
Irish whiskey on the run
In a world full of tears
In a world of mistrust
He just lived on borrowed time and
Wasted all these precious years

I am a little beggarman and beggin I have been
For three score years in this little isle of green
I'm known along the Liffey from the basin to the zoo
And I'm known by the name of the Bold Johnnie Dhu
My brother called "The Jolly Beggar" tripped over the plain
He comes unto the farmer's doors a lodging for a gain
Sometimes the farmers' daughter views him cheek and chin
And calls him a handsome man and takes him in

Fiddler's Green - "Long Gone"

The first time I met you
Your eyes shining brightly
I’ll never forget that glance and your smile
We sat on the floor
Talked five hours or more

I can hardly find my way
So hush my baby not a word
It's my message in a bottle
No more digging in the dirt
Don't you put the screws on me now
Don't you wipe the floor with me
Every word you say is poison
No more fighting let me be

There's a neat little lass and her name is Mary Mack
make no mistake, she's the girl I'm gonna track
a lot of other falla's tryin' to get her on her back
but I think they'll have to get up early

Mary Mack's mother's making Mary Mack marry me
my mother's making me marry Mary Mack
Well,I'm gonna marry Mary so my Mary's taking care of me

Our town is far away from heaven
In a puddle swims the sky
I'm so young I was born in sixtyseven
Now I'm here and don't know why

"Out of sight, out of mind", she said
"Our time is gone and there's no way "
"You are blind, you are a fool", she said

Shabby glowers in a frowsy shebeen
The night will get it's plot, we call all the bloody shots
Lazy-bones made for twilight zones
We're not tracked but sacked, it's a lousy truth of fact

Got all the gear from friends and fences
Picks and sticks, rusty shovels and a spade
We're diggers in the dark, grubbing for some luck

"Oh, Mrs. McGrath," the sergeant said
"Would you like to make a soldier out of your son Ted
With a scarlett coat, a big cocked hat
Mrs. McGrath, wouldn't you like that?"

Now, Mrs. McGrath lived on the sea shore
For the space of seven years or more
Till she saw abig ship sailing in the bay

My baby left me now I'm on my own
I don't know what happened
But now I'm all alone
There's a cold wind blowing straight into my face
I was a fool to let you slip out of my embrace

I see a bad life waiting there for me
A desert in my soul I see a bad life

Never hide, never hide
Don't give up and never hide
When the sea is rough and the girls are tough
Never hide, never hide
Is tomorrow full of sorrow never hide
...
When you go out and drink and your life is full of pain
Never hide, never hide

No anthems

No parades

No hands on hearts today

No banners

This is a home to me

This is where I want to stay

But your love is too much

And you're driving me away

Wipe out my past, wipe out my brain
And let the sun shine down on me again
Wipe out my tears wipe out my name
Get me out of the rain
I'm living on time I borrowed from you
I'm wasting my days feeling so blue
Wipe out my tears and wipe out my brain
Just get me out of the this out of this pouring rain

As I walked out on a bright May morn'
To take a pleasant walk
I sat down on an old stone wall
To hear two lovers talk
To hear what they might say, my friend
Hear what they might say
So I might learn a little about love
Before I go away

There's a cold wind blowing
Will you find your way home?
There's a cold wind blowing

Wherever you are
Will you find your way home? Sweet darling
Will you find your way home?

There were three gypsy coming to my hall door
Down the stairs ran this lady-o
One sang high and the other sang low
And the other sang a Bonny, Bonny, Biscayo

It was up the stairs that the lady went
Put on her silk and leather - o
There was a cry from around the door

For seven years the rainbow warriors
Sailed the pacific ocean
Puruing a pacific mission and
A pacific course
But the French secret service had
A whale of a time blowing the ship up on the
10th of July in 1985
In her struggle she became

In the merry month of June, from me home I started
Left the girls of Tuam nearly broken hearted
Saluted father dear, kissed my darling mother
Drank a pint of beer, me grief and tears to smother
Then, off to reap the corn and leave where I was born
I cut a stout black-thorn to banish ghost and goblin
In a brand new pair of brogues, rattling o'er the bogs
And frightening all the dogs upon the rocky road to Dublin

I drove my boat on the river, my friend
I saw people, the farmers, their land
I met a girl and she passed me her hand
It seemed there'd never be an end

I came along with the people I found
I stayed around till I did hear a sound
I met a girl and I kissed her, my friend

Well I came into a scolding wife a few short years ago
And ever since I lead a life of misery and woe
My wife she is a tyrant around the room and inn
I should sell her to the devil for a glass or two of gin

Sure I'll get up and go to work as mild as any man
And she'll get up and dress herself and go and have her dram
I never chance to say a word, it's well I know my due

Get up you little bastard
Cheat me for a while
Pretend that you still love me
Then show me how you smile
Love is like a riddle
We're looking for the key
Come on you little bastard, lean on me

The sun was shining bright just for a minute orange light
Without any sorrow
Breathe the rainy air, without the rain the sky was glowing

The days are fading away you’re probably out there
The sky is pale and grey just like my soul
I live my life like a slug in isolation
And a ray of light gets lost under my skin

Roaring thunder's raging
Our captain takes command
He's drunken like a madman
The pilot sights the land
He slobbers like a toddler: "Full stream ahead"
The tanker runs aground the cliff
And thousand square miles are dead

I hang around and watch the sky
And high above some birds are passing by
I wonder where they'll be tonight
The heat is on, it burns my skin
And it feels so good, I know that I will win
Everything is going to be alright

But there's a breeze

Had a date with all the sinners
Tried to take a step inside
The world of hate, greed and anger
Of pain and wounded pride

Tried to take that one step closer
To discover the dark side of life
And it filled me up with madness

You'll never find your sleep you are a wayward son
You think you're on your way the journey's just begun
We try to read the sand we try to smell the blood
It's just in sand we write before the great big flood

We try to find the words that will not fade away
We're looking for the words and pray to make them stay
The more we try we know it's just our human blood

It's been so many days so many nights, so many people
I wanna see the sky like a child with eyes that don't ask why
The orange light lights up the past it's shining bright but moving fast

I love I love I love the time when time is a word without life
Llost on the way but the way is all it takes
I know I'm lost in empty space land
So this one goes out to an unknown friend

Yonder stands a pretty maiden
Who she is I do not know
I'll go and court her for her beauty
Let her answer yes or no
Pretty girl I‘ve come to court you
Open your favour I'm again
If you make me truly welcome
I will call this way again

A fair young maid went down the street
Some fresh fish for to buy
And a bonnie young clerk fell
In love with her
And he followed her by and by

How will I get to your chamber love
How will I get to your bed

It's of a jolly beggarman came tripping o'er the plain
He came unto a farmer's door a lodging for to gain
The farmer's daughter she came down and viewed him cheek and chin
She says: "He is a handsome man, I pray you take him in"

[Chorus]
We'll go no more aroving, aroving in the night
We'll go no more aroving, let the moon shine so bright

Oh the night that Paddy Murphy died, is a night I'll never forget
Some of the boys got loaded drunk, and they ain't got sober yet
As long as a bottle was passed around every man was feelin' gay
O'Leary came with the bagpipes, some music for to play

That's how they showed their respect for Paddy Murphy
That's how they showed their honour and their pride
They said it was a sin and shame and they winked at one another

Oh the night that Paddy Murphy died, is a night I'll never forget
Some of the lads got roarin roarin' drunk, some still not sober yet.
As long as a bottle was passed around everyone was feelin' gay
Then O'Leary came with the bagpipes, some music for to play

And that's how they showed their respect for Paddy Murphy
That's how they showed their honor and their pride
They said it was a sin and shame and winked at one another

You and me, reality out of my fantasy
We had it all
But somehow it slipped away
There's nothing left to say

We set the night on fire
The roaring thunder of our own desire
Just you and me

They meet in different places
And go into a trance
They come together
To celebrate that crazy feeling
The Tribal Dance
They recognize each other
By something in there eyes
They come together

She makes me cry, gets me high
Never lets my tank run dry
She lifts me up, fills my cup
Treats me like a litte bug
She pulls me down, steels my crown
Lets my little world go 'round
She makes me happy, makes me say
She's always in my little head

Watch me picking up the pieces
See me out of whack
Welcome to my scary nightmare
Watch me get the sack

Alright, come waste my time now
Sometimes life's a bitch
Alright, I won't decline you

As I was going over the Cork and Kerry Mountains
I met with Captain Farrell and his money he was counting
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier
Saying ""Stand and deliver, or the devil he may take ya""

I counted out his money and it made a pretty penny
I put it in my pocket and I took it home to Molly
She swore that she loved me, no, never would she leave me

Givin' the town a reddish paint you know
So far away from my home
Cracking the bottle a swig is all I need, now or never
I drink like a fish and I'm swilling down my dreams
They stare at me naked
Tiddly tipsy pissed and drunk I wish(I wish)
You would be here on my side

Hey now little baby girl
There is no one else but you
No one to comfort your soul
Hey now little baby girl
No more puppet on a string
You have to walk on your own now

Right now look inside

My mother, she took me to the preacher

She told me that he will be my teacher


My father, he thought that I was lazy

He drank and drank till he went crazy
